Green Gables
Bed and Breakfast

A spacious one-story Queen Anne Victorian built in the 1890s as a wedding gift by Estelle Ducourneau Plôché for her niece, Green Gables, remained in the original family until 1939, when it became the Sutton family home until 1992.

Green Gables has been operating as a Bed and Breakfast since 1993, after having been restored back to its original grandeur. Ornate fireplaces, twelve foot ceilings, stained glass windows, a wrap-around front gallery, original art, and 18th and 19th century antiques transport guests to a time when life was gentle and simple. Take a break from life in the fast lane - relax on the front gallery swing, with a cool drink and a magazine, under the ceiling fan.

Green Gables offers three guest accommodations. The Gallery Room has its own private entrance from the front gallery. A fireplace, stained glass window, daybed, and an antebellum canopied 4-poster bed from Natchez add warmth to this spacious room along with private bath with shower. The Wooden Shutter Room offers an iron and brass bed and a cozy corner fireplace. A private bath with a Jacuzzi and shower is included. If you follow the camellia-lined driveway to the backyard of Green Gables, you will find Camellia Cottage, a romantic retreat complete with an inviting fireplace and kitchenette. Sherry is set out in the guestrooms and fresh cut flowers bring touches of cheer to unexpected corners.
